( for N-Z characters )

Before you post your toplevel comment, please:
1. Check the first letter of your character's name as its written in our tags. N-Z names comment here, and A-M names go to the other post.
2. Make a note in your comment if anything especially triggering or graphic might show up in the Calibration. If you're not sure if something's worth noting or not, we suggest listing it anyway, just to err on the side of caution.
3. Put your character's name (it can be shortened or different from the tag, this time) in the subject of your comment. This will help visitors find you easily, and help us update the list below.
4. Post your comment! It's fine if everyone's Calibrations end up looking and reading very different from one another. As long as you're having fun and following our guidelines, you're good to go. :)
5. If you have any questions or concerns during Calibrations, you are welcome to send them towards the mod team at any time, as always.

I don't mind at all.

[She gives the sand beside her a little pat, her smile bright and open.]

I like it here... there's something about the sound of the waves, under the stars...

[therewerefifty]

[She sits down at the invitation, smoothing her kimono down before running her fingers through the sand.]

It's a feeling I greatly enjoy. I lived on a smaller beach than this for a while, but... I think it was my favourite place to return to. I'll go back some day. Is this a beach of Japan?

[willynilly]

No, this is... um, have you ever heard of Hawaii? An island, out in the middle of the ocean... it's really popular with tourists in my time.

[therewerefifty]

I haven't, no. [But if it's all as lovely as this, she can see why it would be popular.]

It must hold a lot of fond memories for you, if we're back here.

[Or, y'know, really bad ones. She's hoping the former.]

[willynilly]

Actually... this is my first time here.

[She's too pleased to feel especially sheepish about it, but she is a little bit.]

[therewerefifty]

[Blink. Wat.]

...are you just imagining this is how it would look?

[I'm confused and have never heard of the internet okay.]

[willynilly]

Well, that's part of it! But I've seen pictures, and videos, and vlogs and stuff... I was studying how much I'd need to save up to have a vacation here, and where would be the best place to be... it's not the same as the real thing, but it helps the imagination!

[therewerefifty]

[Oh-- well actually, put like that, she realises how simple that is, then, having grown used to the communicators. She just didn't realise it was common. She probably should have.]

I hope you get to come here for real, then, one day. Does it cost very much to travel here?

[willynilly]

Ahh... lots, and lots. Way more than we ever make. A hundred thousand yen or so... and that's just to get one person here!

[therewerefifty]

[...she has no real idea of how much that is, actually, given yen is a newer currency than she's used to, but hundred thousand is explanation enough that it's a lot.]

Do you... is it possible to achieve?

[willynilly]

I hope so... I've never had that much money in my whole life, though, nevermind as spare cash. If I save and save or make it big, maybe one day. It's my dream.

[therewerefifty]

[...welp. She's not about to be a wet blanket and tell her how hard that seems.]

Dreams are important. I wish you luck.

[...also, she shouldn't be here, no matter how beautiful it is. But give her a second to enjoy it a little longer before she actively starts trying to leave.]
